MURRAY, NFBRASK A Mrs. Lee Allison and Miss Jessie Irost were visiting in 1'nlon Wedncs day, the guest of Miss I na I avis, be fore her (Miss Davis) departure for an extended visit with friends and rela tlvesln Virginia. Miss Davis depart ed on the midnight train Wednesday Wednesday evening. While In Murray Wednesday our at tcntion was called to some of the hand painted chlnaware on display at the store of L. R. I'nderwood, the work of Mr. Underwood's sister, Miss Minnie It Is certainly some of the finest work we have ever seen and In every partic ular displays the finishing touches of an artist. We understand that a certain young gentleman, not many miles from Mur ray, went to I'lattsmouth last Satur day evening, and wishing to pay his taxes went to the court house for this purpose, but could not gain admit lance, and left his money lay on the steps on the outside. We will not give the young man's name, but leave It to our readers to guess. A little child was born to Mr. and Mrs. l'hlllp Trltsch at their home nine miles northeast of Murray, on ! last Saturday, only to be called from them by that mysterious unseen hand a few hours later. Funeral services ! were held Sunday and the little one ! burled In the cemetery near the home i of Its parents. Mr. and Mrs. Trltsch ' have the deepest sympathy of the on tire community. A new order has been Issued from ihe ! I'. S. K. M.

Walker and daughter, Miss Margie, and Miss Clara Ilervey, and brother, David, spent Wednesday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. 0. II. Gllmore in Murray, the oc casion being in honor of their little son, Walker's, fourth birthday. The day was a very pleasant one and we know that Mrs. Gllmore treated them to an excellent meal at the noon hour. Little Walker was the happiest and proudest boy In the town when his grandpa presented him with a new tricycle as a birthday present. M. L. Furlong, from near Hock I Huffs, w;is In Murray Wednesday. He enroied his name on our large sub scription list at this place. "Jimmio's" New Home. While in Murray Wednesday after noon we went over to see the new home being erected by James Lough- ridge on his lots just north of Main street, and we were indeed surprised to learn that he was building such a nonportable home as he really is. All the good lumler fiom the old house is being worked Into the rough or inner portlou only of the new one, and while it is far from completion one can read ily see the plans of the architect and just about how they are to be carried out. The new structure will be :?0x'J4 with a 1(1x14 on the north end, giving him live good rooms with a large porch on the front and rear, also two large closets. Kxtra large windows will he placed In the parlor and dining room with a diamond shape colored window In the enclosed porch in the rear. The A. E. Jameson contracting company of Weeping Water are doing the carpen ter work, and when completed we can truthfully say that Mr. and Mrs, Loughrldge will have one of the most pleasant homes In Murray. Entertain In Honor of Guests. Mr. and Mrs. Will Vallery, west of the city, entertained a large number of their friends at their comfortable country home last Saturday evening, In honor of Misses Florence Pitzer of Louisville and Gertie Ucnsee of Rush vllle, Neb. The evening was very en joyably spent In various amusements, chief among which was "tipping the light fantastic toe." Ice cream and cake were served during the evening, and one who was there says it was one of tlic grandest events of a social na ture he ever attended. The dancing continued to a late hour when all took their departure with th hope that Mr. and Mrs. Vallery will soon repeat the happy event.

Fleming of Omaha Married Wednesday at t!ie Home of the Bride in Mynard. One of the prettiest weddings of the summer occurred Wednesday in the presence of few near friends and rela tives, at the hospitable home of Mr. and Mrs. W. It. Murray In Mynard, when their daughter, Miss Alice, and Mr. Guy C. Fleming, of Omaha, were united In the holy bonds of marriage at high noon, by Rev. J. F. Baird, of Plattsmouth.

The groom and also his best man, Mr. Claire Eennettof Omaha, were dressed In the conventional black. Miss Cecil Longworth of Ada, Ohio, presided at the piano, and with grace and ease rendered Lohengrin wedding march. The rooms had been artistically decora ted for the occasion with sweet peas and ferns. After the ceremony, which was per formed under a beautiful arch of Mow ers and thecongratulations, theguests repaired to the dining room where a bounteous three course dinner was served by . Misses.

Murray, is an accomplished young lady and has a large number of friends who will be pleased to learn of this happy event, and w ho will hasten to congrat ulate the young groom upon securing such a loving and estimable young lady for his partner through life. Mr. and Mrs. Fleming were the reel plents of many handsome presents from their friends, who did not neglect to assist them last night In preparing for their journey to Omaha, where Mr, Fleming has a good position In the county register of deeds office, and where they w ill be at home to their friends. One Hundred Years Old. Mr. Ivan S.White, and hisdaugh ter-ln-law, Mrs. Mark White, of Rock KlutTs. departed from this city today for Trenton, Mo., near which his mother resides, where they go to as. sist in celebrating her one hundredth anniversary. The mother, Mrs. Mary White, was born in eastern Tennessee, near the Virginia state line, in lsoo, but has lived in Missouri since 1:4, where her son, Ivan, was born in l:i." The last time Mr. White received word from his mother she was in the enjoyment of excellent health for one of her age, and he is expecting to have a most enjoyable visit with her. She ias resided within six miles of Tren ton, Mo., ever since coming to the state, and she will no doubt also be oined also by many of her neighbors and friends in Grundy county in cele brating the greatest event of her life her 100th birthday. The occasion will no doubt lie an enjoyable one for Mr. White and his daughter. nother quiet wedding occurred at noon today, when Miss Kalle Dorr and Mr. Louis Chappel, both residents of this county, near Nehawka, were hap' plly united by County Judge Travis. The groom is a son of George Chappel and Is an Industrious young farmer who has many friends. The bride Is a daughter of Robert Dorr, and appear; ed rery charming In a beautiful white dress.

O.HMA Of Course It's Not Legal. The Syracuse Journal complied with the order of Secretary of State Galusha and printed what it called a supple ment containing the proposed consti tutional amendment. This Is the second supplement we have seen and neither of them contained a single line of reading matter but was tilled wiin advertisements. That supple ment Is not worth the paper on which It Is printed and should have been excluded from the malls. Every news daper publisher knows that under the law- that supplement could not have been folded and sent out with the regular edition, because It was not what It purported to be. Nebraska City News., Any newspaper man, who is at all posted knows that a supplement tilled up only with advertising, and no read ing matter cannot legally pass through the malls. And the constitutional amendment Is nothing more than an advertisement paid for by the state. Of course, if Nebraska has "got money to burn," It is just as well to give it to the newspapers, who favor the wilyGalusha for re-f lection. This Is why it was delayed, the secretary of state wanted the amendment in those papers only who favored his re-nomi nation. Hut Nebraska can al'ord to throw away l,ooo in this manner. Tho taxpayers are the sufferers. Postoffice Sites. Rids were opened yesterday at the ollice of the supervising architect of the treasury department in Washing ton for a site for the new govern ment building to be erected in this city. The site requires not less than 12i) by Rio feet in area, and the follow ing are the bids opened and considered: John Rauer and Feterltauen, cor ner Vine and Seventh streets, SjJ.'O; . Pearlman, Chris. Koehnke and S.IL Shumaker, southeast corner Vine and Sixth streets, $,s."0; A. E. Gass and F. G. Frlcke, northeast corner Sixth and Vine, $7,500: R. W. Scott, corner Sixth and Granite, $.1,000; Charles C. Parmele, northeast corner Seventh and Main, $G,.r)00; August Gorder and C. C.

It will perhaps be some little time before it will be known which site is accepted, and it may be necessary for the government to send a representa tive here to decide the matter. In the meantime the people can go on lo cating the building to suit their no tion, just as they have been doing. In this state It Is not necessary te lerve a five days' notice for eviction of n cold.
